J. Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 2 hours ago, Bailey. said: what part of "no part" are you folks NOT understanding? She's not going to thank you for putting her name in some bullshit she herself didnt stoop so low as to "gain" anything from it, she's bigger than that SB moment, and will not associate herself with it....if you want a Janet Jackson appreciation day, buy her albums, buy concert tickets, thank her for the legendary career she achieved well before 2004, and learn to ignore the SB and stop using it to prop Janet up against a lessor talent. If you're going to celebrate Janet and feel you must, do it right, celebrate her, no strings attached..... dayum shoulda said thank you, she kept it "woke" Im not gonna thank ya'll for opening up the coon door I know what time it is "I WILL NOT"!!! So now the day of appreciation was bullshit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Like Jarrylf, Bailey, & Others are said, if you do a nice gesture for someone, and expect, want, and live off the “thank you” then you’re doing it for the wrong reason. Janet isn’t “rude” for not responding over something she didn’t ask for 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Wonder Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 6 hours ago, Bailey. said: let's not confuse performing a kind gesture such as opening a door for a stranger with pandering to an opportunistic moment that took full advantage of Janet's name again being associated with the SB and not her legacy nor talent. Janet herself even knocked it out the park the day before no less stating "I will not" and thanked the fans for their support. Now after taking what should have been a day of appreciation simply because Janet is Janet and that's pretty awesome alone, you folks basically did a counter protest of Justin's SB So to sum it up you opened the door for me and quickly slammed it in my face too, which part was I supposed to say thank you for? None of this answers my question. And again, imagine thinking the hash tag was simply about Superbowl. 2 hours ago, J. said: He loves to spin something when he's losing. Hopping from one failed argument to the next. They just don't want to admit that I'm right. And that's okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should slap you, but anyway yeah i'm sure Janet heard about it and I do think she should've at least said something but i'm not gonna be pressed about it. Maybe the baby is sick or something. I've known for years. Like, imagine not having manners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janet isn’t “rude” for not responding over something she didn’t ask for Normie, that's common courtesy. For example, If I hold the door for you, I expect a thank you. I didn't have to do it, but I did it out of the kindness of my heart. You should show that same sentiment by saying thank you. It's not a hard concept to grasp. And YES, it relates to Janet's situation. She could have acknowledged the outpouring of love from fans/celebs/fairweathers for the appreciation of her impact and influence in POPULAR CULTURE/MUSIC/OUR DAILY LIVES. It went beyond the SB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illi Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 The fact that she made the statement after the campaign was announced and started to pick up steam shows that she appreciated the efforts but SHE DID NOT WANT TO GET IN IT. And this isn't like holding the door for someone. It's more like (indirectly) terrorizing an ex for someone when he or she clearly moved on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for the sake of argument let's say it was, an appreciation day, she's still NOT required to thank you.

Laveaux Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 It would have been nice for her to say something and she could have framed it as fans appreciating the anniversary of Control.

I honestly share this win with the women I proudly call my twin, my ReyRey,the only other nominee that matters. Before I even commented on anything here I was very nervous about this bunch and I felt you all out for someone I could talk to in PM to maybe let my guard down a little bit, it was her, and she was perfect, I had no idea she was a newbie herself at that time. To BlackCat89, hang in here let your guard down a little more, and come to Freexone more, you'll be fine. Thank you all and again shout out to Rey & BlackCat.

Do tell. Oh so glad you asked. It's because it's what I do, however in how I was raised to say thank you for everything, I was also raised not to fault people or take anything away from people who don't say the words, that some people are more about the actions than saying the words, and that in life you have to expect to do the right thing WITHOUT getting thanked at all, that's just what it is as a person of color, you do the right thing period, and a thank you is a courtesy, not an order Anything Else?

Illi Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I don't even think it's about a thank you more so than some fans feeling Janet should have used the campaign to promote herself, which is beyond tacky. Realistically, it was JT's moment and the campaign was used to combat that, so understandably, Janet doesn't want to get put in it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope but she did to be shady and I love it. You're kinda making my point. She didn't want to get in it. That's why she isn't saying anything else regarding or associated with that event. Any she clearly wasn't gonna say or do anything after that until she had another project on the horizon. So I don't understand the point of being offended that she isn't saying anything. She clearly made her stance and was done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure she loves us but like the others I do think she could've said something but it's done. On to better things. I'd rather her focus on getting her fans back overseas and continuing her successful State of the World tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
